LMAO they'll never get it.

 

[RockmanBN]

A few years late on the trend

 

[FarSight XR-20]

Totally what I want from Battlefield. I don't want to believe it.

 

[Chirotera]

It makes me happy when companies just come out and tell me I can ignore their future titles. Thanks EA!

 

[Conkerkid11]

how is that their takeaway from the BF 2042 reception

 

[vestan]

Can they at least go full Battlefield Heroes with this one

 

[Jamrock User]

Man that sub reddit is gone burn down later today.

[EvilChameleon]

Oh christ...

 

[SirKai]

Does this mean Specialists can be retooled into classes for 2042? Please?

 

[GooberDooberCBC]

What has happened to my poor battlefield. I am sad.

[viandante]

goodbye, old friend.

 

[Silvergun-Blue]

Will it have motion controls? I hear that's the latest trend.

 

[Hektor]

Battlefield Heroes already was a thing tho

 

[Deleted member 31423]

The death of videogames cant come soon enough.

Where is that Elmo gif

 

[Shelbyville Milhouse]

I'm having a shit ton of fun with the specialists in 2042 so sure.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Just make a new IP then, basically taking yourself out at the knees naming it Battlefield.

That was so fun, real shame it failed.

 

[Dest]

Enough of the hero shooters.

 

[GazRB]

Isn't 2042 a hero shooter

 

[Star-Lord]

Man Dice / EA are struggling with what people want….

 

[Lobster Roll]

They can have specialists and also have squad-based gameplay where people play roles to help each other capture objectives. This isn't a Chicken Little situation lol. It's literally happening in 2042. People can say what they want about the performance and bugs, but specialists are fitting right into the Battlefield mold just fine currently.

 

[Interrobang]

Lmao, they really don't get it.

 

[Deleted member 93062]

Listen... just take Apex Legend's Arena mode and expand on it. Let me play Capture the Flag as Pathfinder or Mirage! It would be so much fun.

 

[KodaRuss]

Do you know your customer EA? It doesnt seem like you ever do.

 

[Sanox]

Then why the hell did they do the specialists thing for 2042 if they intend to go even more hero shooter with another game

They also struggle getting things out on time in an acceptable state for retail launch.

 

[PandemicOdin]

I feel bad for Battlefield fans, hopefully the game as at least FTP

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Can we possibly integrate NFTs?

They sold 4.5 million copies in the first week, so i think EA sees it as a success...

 

[Ascenion]

I don't think I've ever seen a franchise have this many attempts on its life. What the heck are they thinking.

 

[RoKKeR]

Sigh.

Won't put too much into it for now but this is my personal least favorite part of Bf2042.

 

[MJForum Poster]

Well at least I don't need to pay it any attention moving forward

Ditto. It was nice while it lasted, BF.

 

[Gunztrix]

I didn't buy 2042 but based on all the news coming out I don't think I'll buy another battlefield for the foreseeable future.

 

[Lord Fanny]

What is a hero shooter? Like Fortnite?

 

[AndrewDean84]

 

[Megamind.]

I'll start digging this ones grave. Can anyone help me out? It will be a big one

 

[padsports]

Lets wait and see how they pull a santa claus-skin-180 on this one.

 

[Faenix1]

Ugh. Why?

Overwatch is a hero shooter, I do believe.

 

[criteriondog]

I guess I'm done with battlefield :(
Will at least check out the trailers but this doesn't sound like what I want from battlefield at all

 

[big_z]

Dear Microsoft,
Please get the bad company sub brand from EA and remaster it so we can have one last good battlefield experience.
Love gamers
Ps please get road rash while there too.
